Pi

Brother Hayden forwarded this to me today:

TOKYO (AP) — A Japanese mental health counselor recited pi to 100,000 decimal places from memory on Wednesday. He needed more than 16 hours to recite the number to 100,000 decimal places.

Pi is a physical constant defined as the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. It is usually written out to a maximum of three decimal places, as 3.141, in math textbooks. But the number, which has fascinated scientists for centuries, has no theoretical limit to the number of decimal places it can be written to. It is a constant that appears in the proofs of many equations defining the universe.

"What I am aiming at is not just memorizing figures, I am thrilled by seeking a story in pi," Haraguchi said.

I just got to thinking here about

(A) How much time that took to memorize

(B) Why he would think there is a story there

It sounds like Mr Haraguchi is seeking and looking for the story behind the numbers. I appreciate his diligence and see his passion!

I wonder if we would diligently seek the story of the One who has no theoretical limit and devote energy and time to that.

As we worship well this weekend I encourage us to remember that God is eternal, invisible, immortal and independent. He does not have a "theoretical limit." He has no limit. He has a story for the nations.He is the one who not only defines the universe but created it!

And He does delight in our worship of the One who is the Ancient of Days, the Alpha and the Omega.
